So I'm finally starting to recover after being floored by a virus/flu or whatever it was and thus can finally get back to putting something interesting on here!
Mossley won again on Saturday, 2-1 vs Salford City, so after a terrible winless start they respond with a massively unexpected 3 wins in a row!
Turning attentions away from non league tomorrow however, as I'll be going to the newly renamed "Etihad Stadium" for Man City vs Birmingham. Yes the Carling Cup isn't high on the agenda of many teams anymore and City in particular will be likely to rest a lot of players, but such is their strength in depth now that their 2nd choice team is exciting in itself, with attacking talents of Tevez and Balotelli likely and this may be the first game in a City shirt for Hargreaves. Of course the away side are unlikely to be looking to throw this game away having won this cup last season - and with their manager Chris Hughton already beginning to feel pressure as Birmingham have struggled in the Championship so far.
I went to City's ground last year when they played at home to Tottenham in the league and it was stunning - and the atmosphere was near deafening. Obviously the crowd won't be the same tomorrow but I'm still very much looking forward to going back!
